Baby carrier/stroller canopy

ABSTRACT

My invention, is a stroller canopy for a baby carrier and/or a stroller that is more versatile, useful, functional, strong and multi purpose than any other baby carrier/stroller canopy made fore to now. 
     This baby carrier/stroller canopy allows for many variations, adjustments, has a hidden rain cover, has a hidden mesh cover, all of which provide full protection from: sun/ultra violet rays/bright light, bugs, wind, and rain.
 
When the canopy, which is made of made of canvas in stylish styles and colors, is at its&#39; most upright position it is compact yet still provides sun blockage. When the canopy is fully open it covers the stroller from the top all the way to the bottom.
 
In using the stroller canopy I here propose, one would not need any other covers or attachments for their baby carrier/stroller canopy in varying situations.

TECHNICAL FIELD AND INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to the manufacture of a canopy for a baby carrier and stroller. The present invention relates particularly to a multi functional, extensively adjustable, wind/rain/sun shade/black out canopy for a baby carrier and stroller.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Most every baby carrier (i.e. car seats in the car and car seats attached to a wheel base making the car seat like a stroller) and strollers (running strollers, double strollers, umbrella strollers, etc.) has a canopy to protect the baby from the sun.

Formerly, these canopies on baby carriers and strollers did not adjust and provided only one option for positioning.

In recent years, there have been a large variety of strollers and their accompanying canopies available on the market. These canopies are limited and inadequate. Consequently, there have been a number of canopy attachments introduced to the market that solve some of the problems associated with stroller canopies such as inadequate sun coverage or no rain cover.

My invention, sets out to solve the problems inherent in today's stroller canopies and their inadequate attachments by creating a canopy that allows for many variations, adjustments, and has a hidden rain cover in a front zippered pocket that can be taken out when needed.

1. A baby carrier and stroller canopy that is more versatile, useful, functional, strong and multi purpose than any other canopy made, comprising: a. The canopy is made of canvas: b. the canvas is coated with malleable water proof plastic making the canopy itself is water proof, wind resistant, blocks uv rays c. plastic inserted into the canvas allow for the multiple adjustments d. the rain cover pouch is lined with plastic, has a zipper e. the rain cover is a thick clear plastic and is malleable f. there is a second pouch the houses a black mesh cover
 2. The canopy claim 1, where in said canopy will have multiple adjustments including one that allows the canopy to fully cover the child's seat. Various adjustments include: one to cover sun from above allowing child to have full view before him and to the side, another to block sun beating down when in front of him, another to block wind, to fully cover child so child can sleep (in this position the carriage will become darkened and outside noise will be muted), and any variation there in.
 3. The canopy claim 2, where in there is a zippered front pocket in the canopy contains a rain cover which is attached within the pocket but can be detached. This rain cover when stored is fully concealed. This rain cover is attached to the canopy but can be detached to let it dry, although the rain cover can also be folded on top of the canopy to when drying.
 4. The canopy claim 3, where in there is a second pocket in the backside of the canopy that stores a mesh cover that blocks out light and bugs. This mesh cover is at the ready within the pouch at all times. When it is fully taken out can cover the entire canopy including behind the child's seat.
